    Clickbait title is clickbait.

    They told the chatbot to do something and it did it. No one in their right mind should think that’s “convincing” by any stretch of the definition.

      It’s a rather amusing article, but don’t take it too seriously. It’s an ad attempting to go viral. FFS, there are 16 pictures of the Chevy Tahoe.

      I kinda get it, it’s a car site after all. And I don’t want to be the one always screaming “shill!” when a product is mentioned. But still, 16 pictures of the product to tell a mildly amusing story? A story that ultimately isn’t focused on the exact product in question?

          They’re complaining about a photo gallery all the way at the bottom of the page. It comes after the content tags and author info.

        It’s also like the fourth time the same story has been posted on the last couple days.

        Unless the dealer actually ended up selling him the car for $1, it’s really not that newsworthy.
